I can special case i386 and amd64, but this change should (eventually)
remove the majority of the current special case overrides for
alternative architectures.

I think it'd be better to have a bhyve root bridge driver that itself
overrides pci_maxslots(), and have the 'compliant' path be the common.

Thoughts?
